Dynamic Tests (Pacemaker Power ON):
These tests are triggered measurements of dc leakage, measured prior to the
specific output pulse as follows:
•
Atrial Channel: dc leakage across the atrial channel 500
Ω
test load.
•
Ventricular Channel: dc leakage across the ventricular channel 500
Ω
test load.
•
AV Channel: dc leakage across an auxiliary 500
Ω
test load
connected to the +atrial and +ventricular outputs.
Note
Refer to the check out procedure for your specific pacemaker
regarding testing protocols and limits for these dc leakage tests.
Current Drain Test
This test measures the load current drawn by the pacemaker from a 9 volt
source. See Figure 4-3. A load test cable (Part # 2201074) is provided with
the Analyzer as a standard accessory to facilitate connections to the recessed
battery terminals of the Medtronic 5388 and 5348.
